Sheâs In Love With A Geek is VERY different from Must Date The PLAYBOY.
Please do not compare the set up, the characters and the story line. It will never be the same because I created Chad and Courtney differently. So please refrain from saying that this is so not like MDTP because again, this is really not MDTP.
Thank you very much. Enjoy! <3

CHAPTER 9 â Flirtutor
** COURTNEYâs POV **
âOh my Court, what happened to you!â
âYeah! Weâre looking for you. Where have you been?â
âAre you okay? Seriously Court, sending us that emergency thingy is so not cool. We thought that youâve been hit by a bus or something!â
Thatâs the kind of welcome greeting I received from my friends the moment I stepped foot at my receiving area. I never expected them to be so worried like this after I sent that group message to them. Fiona, Jenny and Terry were all looking troubled.
After that unfortunate incident with Chad, I immediately went home so that I can meet up with my friends and discuss this bothering situation I put myself into. I never expected them to arrive this early and greet me with these questions.
âGirls, calm down. Iâll explain everything. Hereâs the thing---â before I continued, I noticed that one of my friends was not yet here. âWhereâs Lucy?â I asked.
âWho knows? Maybe she wonât show up, sheâs not a true friend.â Fiona replied dryly.
âYeah. Maybe sheâs not?â Jenny added. Oh God Jenny, always second-the-motion.
âWhy look for someone whoâs not here? I mean weâre the original right? Me, you, Jenny and Fiona. Why bother looking for the wannabe.â Terry took an emphasis with her last word that earned a lot of laugh from the girls.
Oh. Iâm so not hearing this!
âStop that! Sheâs our bestfriend and I donât want us backstabbing one another. Weâre different from the nasty girls in teen movies. Weâre pretty and popular and thatâs it. So stop the hating and start loving, okay?â I folded my arms and looked at them with disbelief.
âWhatever you say Court. Youâre such a goody-goody you know.â Terry giggled.
âNo Terry, weâre supposed to be good friends.â I retorted in a duh tone.
There was silence and then the door opened. There revealed Lucy.
âIâm sorry for being late. Did I miss something?â Lucy smiled from ear-to-ear. No one dared to say a thing.
Talk about awkward.
âNo. Youâre just in time. Just getting started.â I smiled at her.
Itâs time to lessen the tension in the air. And itâs time to tell them the real deal.
âYou see, a week ago I was confronted by Mr. Cleveland regarding my class standing. He said that if I continue my afterschool shenanigans, I might not able to graduate. Then my Dad knew about this and I swear he was so pissed off! He gave me a curfew, threatened me that heâll take away my credit card and car and I shouldnât get some Cs, Ds or Fs in any of my quizzes, exams and---â
âWhoa! Slow down Court! We barely understand a thing. No need to rush.â Terry cuts me off.
âFine.â I sighed. âTo make the long story short, I might not graduate.â
âWHAT! Are you kidding us Court?â Fiona exclaimed.
âYeah! As in no way youâre not graduating!â Jenny agreed.
âWhat the hell is wrong with that principal? Letâs get him!â Terry threatened.
Oh typical Terry.
âWait. Letâs calm down. Itâs might not graduate so instead of cursing the principal, letâs think of a plan on how Court will solve this.â Lucy suggested. Wow. Weâre really thinking of the same thing.
âExactly my point! Thank you Lucy.â I beamed and then I continued. âYou see girls I already have a plan, a brilliant plan. But I canât put it into action because someone is not cooperating.â I rolled my eyes as I remembered how Chad had been so hard on me.
âWhat about it? And who was this someone?â Lucy questioned.
âWell, itâs kinda evil, but since youâre all my best friends Iâll tell youâ¦â I paused. I took a deep breath, closed my eyes and hoped that they wonât take this harshly. âI asked the erran--- I mean Student Assistant to steal the test papers for the examination.â I said in a rush. I opened my eyes and I almost laughed when I saw the staggered look on their faces. Not the reaction that I was expecting but should I hope that this was a good sign?
No one dared to say a word. So I finally broke the ice. âGirls?â
âTotally Genius! Evil Genius!â Fiona exclaimed.
âYeah! As in Totally Genius!â Jenny agreed.
âPure evil Court! I like that! I always thought that you have this evil side in you!â Terry pointed out.
âWhere are the papers? Youâre going to share it with us, right? Oh My! Youâre so generous, Court!â Lucy chirped excitedly. Now everyoneâs eyes were glinting with hope.
âNo. I donât have it. Not a single thing. Didnât I mention awhile ago that he is not cooperating?â I tried to enlighten them.
âWhat?â Lucy was a little bit puzzled. âWho on earth doesnât cooperate with Courtney Collins? The Courtney Collins.â She emphasized. So, itâs not just me whoâs thinking of the same thing.
I canât believe that there will come a time that there will be someone going against my will. I was known for the girl who gets what she wants, the girl who has everything in the world. But then Chad Treyson was the only person who made me feel like a nobody, like Iâm just an ordinary girl. And I am not just an ordinary girl!
âA geek named Chad Treyson.â
âChad Treyson?â They all asked in unison.
âThe geek you saved from being bullied? That doesnât make any sense. He should have accepted your request. The fact that you saved him, he should be grateful and express his gratitude to you.â I can see in Fionaâs way of questioning that she was confused on the situation I am right now. Donât worry Fiona, I am too.
âYouâre his savior, he should have given you the papers as a token of appreciation to your doings.â Terry said.
That savior thing again!
âYou donât know what really happened. The time he refused to give me the papers, I threatened him that I will make his life like a living hell. Then that thing was the product of his arrogance. I asked Max---â
Everyone gasped at the mention of Maxâs name.
âSo youâre the reason why Max is bullying again!â
âYeah! Itâs been a long time since he showed us his GEEK TERMINATOR side! Heâs so cute!â
âI must say that the show he was pulling up everyday was really entertaining.â
âAnd the slushie part was so new!â
âTotallyâ
âYeah! As in Totallyâ
âWicked!â
Iâm lost! I really donât know whoâs talking right now. They just kept on blabbering and talking. I canât get anything from them. Was it really a good call to tell them the situation I am into? Theyâre just making my already messed up plan worst!
I cleared my throat to call their attention. âAs I was saying.â I started the moment I saw theyâre being attentive again. âThis Chad Treyson is so hard to crack. You canât please him, threaten him and Iâm getting frustrated because no mater what I do, he canât just give up!â Now clearly Iâm getting all frustrated.
âSo, is it a game over?â Fiona asked.
âYou gave up?â Terry worried.
âNo. Courtney Collins doesnât know how to give up. So I came up with this idea. We made a deal. If I can make him fall in love with me, heâll give me the exam papers.â
Fiona stood up from where she was sitting, feeling excited about the news that I shared. âThatâs easy! He sure will! Everyone loves you!â
âI bet he is in love with you right now. Heâs just making a way to get closer to you.â
My brows quirked up when Terry said those words. Why didnât I saw that before? Maybe she does have a point. Maybe this was one of Chadâs ways to get to know me.
I felt a smirk forming in my lips. But then it disappeared the moment I recalled the things he said and do to me. True, weâre now talking and being civil towards each other, but then again I canât hint anything that he somehow likes me.
Girls have this some kind of a radar where-in they can tell if someone likes them. But then with Chad, thereâs no such sign that he was attracted to me. Not a single thing.
âWith your hair flip, wink and smile move, he will definitely fall for you! As in totally fall for you!â Lucy assured me.
âHair flip, wink, smile. Hair flip, wink, smile. Hair flip, wink, smile.â Everyone said in unison, gesturing my signature move.
Itâs actually my secret weapon, and Iâll make sure that Iâll use it on desperate times.
âWhy donât you just tell him you know what? I think Iâm in love with you, Chad. I love you.â Lucy mimicked me while facing Terry. And then Terry replied âI love you too Courtney Collins.â
That made us all laugh. But then weâre forgetting something important here.
âGood idea but thereâs a problem.â I said and everyone looked at me, waiting for my next words. âHe also created his own deal. If I fell for him first and say those three words, I have no choice but to join his Drama Club.â
âThe Drama Club? Itâs social suicide Court!â
âYeah, as in Social Suicide!â
âYouâve got to be kidding me! Heâs insane!â
âWhat a dweeb! He expects Courtney Collins to fall for him knowing that she has the hottest boyfriend in the world!â
âTotally!â
âYeah, as in totally!â
âHeâs out of his mind!â
Ok. Iâm lost again. Seriously, these girls talk a lot and Iâm not getting any useful information.
âStop!â I commanded and they all settled down. âI donât need nonsense arguments. I need a plan. I mean plans. Plans that will make him fall in love with me and say those three forbidden words as soon as possible!â
I have no time and Iâm running a little low with ideas. Iâm not good with these sort of things. As I said, I was used to get the things I wanted from the start so thereâs no need for me to think of a plan on how to get those.
I waited for them to think and express something. Sure one brain was not enough but five will definitely think of something useful!
But much to my disappointment, a lot of lame suggestions keep on coming out and I wonât dare consider these stupid ideas!
âKiss him!â
âNo way!â I answered.
âHook up?â
I groaned. âAs if Fiona!â
âMake him jealous!â
âImpossible!â Yes, as if Chad cares.
âMake out!â
âI said no way!â What is wrong with these brains?
âHOOK UP!â
âFor the last time Fiona, I said no freakin way!â
âFlirtutor!â
âI said---â I stopped and everyone else was silent. We all trailed our eyes to the one who spoke up, Jenny. âWhat?â I queried.
âI said Flirtutor!â Jenny grinned.
What the hell she was talking about?
âWhatâs Flirtutor?â I asked.
âWhat? You donât know what Flirtutor means?â She looked at us questionably.
âNo honey, we donât speak alien words.â Terry teased.
âWhatever Terry!â Jenny rolled her eyes but then decided to continue. âFlirtutor. It is the act of flirting while tutoring. Youâll pretend that you donât understand a subject, approach him to tutor you and then the rest is up to you. Use.The.Charm!â She said in a proud voice.
âWow, I didnât expect youâve come up with a brilliant idea like that!â I exclaimed. For the first time, Jenny left me speechless. A very useful words coming from her. Not Bad.
Chad wonât suspect a thing. Heâll think of this as an alternative to my current situation without knowing that Iâm using my charm to lure him into falling for me.
âI like it. Flirtutor it is!â
âBut what about Troy?â Lucy asked.
Yes. The most vital loophole of this agreement, I have a boyfriend. The thing thatâs been bothering me the moment I made the agreement with that geek. If Troy discovered that Iâm flirting with another guy, heâll definitely kill him. Bloodshed was not even in my list. Chad is my only hope.
âYes, about him. Iâm going to ask you guys a humongous favor. Please keep this info away from Troy, âcoz he might do something stupid, if you know what I mean. And keep him busy always accompany him.â
âYou canât fool Troy. Heâll definitely know somethingâs going on. Everyone knows you. Itâs hard to hide, Court. Youâre popular. Your every move were on papers, itâs all written.â Terry informed me.
Yeah. Talk about being popular.
âEvery eyes were on you, Court. How will you pull this thing?â Fiona worried.
I never thought of that. But I was very careful for the past few days. Even my friends donât know that Iâm secretly meeting with Chad. The mall, the secret backyard, I think I can do this. I just have to make a move when people were out of sight.
âI can pull this through. I need to do this. Itâs the only way. As for Troy, I heard that heâd be gone in two or three weeks for some college scholarship thingy and by the time he comes back; everything will be fine. As if nothing happened. I get the test papers, Iâll be able to graduate and I get my old life back! You just have to make sure that this will be a secret. Settled?â I asked, expecting them to agree.
âBrilliant! No worries, we will make sure that Troy will know nothing about this.â
âJust tell us if youâre going to meet up with that geek. Besides, the saving incident was still on fire. People will think that the reason why youâre talking with him was because youâre just being nice. Right?â They assured me.
I nodded. Iâm very thankful that I have friends like them. âOne more thing. Donât touch Chad. If he sensed that something was up, he might cut off the deal. Heâs mine to take care of.â
âDonât worry about it. We know you can do it. Weâll make sure that everything will go out smoothly.â
âGreat. I have the best friends in the world.â I smirked and they all giggled.
Now I can finally put my plans into action without being worried.
Iâve never been this determined in my life. I want Chad Treyson down. Begging and wanting me. Itâs not just the exam papers. I have to redeem myself.
I have to make this geek fall head-over-heels on me, The Courtney Collins.
